They have redesigned the Minisuit and the Poetic 2 piece cases and put the cutouts in the right spots. Of the two, I grabbed the Minisuit, since I have had both for the Prime, and there were almost identical - granted the Poetic is a TINY bit better, but nothing substantial. They are both "PU Leather" (look it up on Wiki - Modern technology permits up to three or four horizontal layers being taken from a single hide. The leather used in the backing of bicast or PU Leather is a thin layer, remaining after other layers have been removed for traditional leather work They actually have to dye a leather pattern back onto it for lighter colors, this is why I avoid the browns, even if they look... okay, they are not very natural real looking.

After this they coat this thin, THIN split leather with a layer of polyurethane applied to the surface and then embossed (to have a texture)

For the money? Its damn nice, feels super soft, shines beautifully (try Pledge, which list leather as one of its applications- shines really nice)

Anyway the MiniSuit is $11.95

And the Poetic is 18.95

- At these prices, you can't go very wrong, and they do protect your tablet and dock. They do make it thick as a big phone book though, LOL! I usually only "sheath" my Infinity when traveling or taking it outside the house.

I received my Poetic today from Amazon. As the previous poster stated when closed out its thick as a phonebook. However, for 18+ bucks this is a very nice case.

I was wondering if something like this existed. Last time I looked at the thread, I didn't noticed what I was looking for but this time I did.

I want the Dock easily removable, so I can, say, leave it in the car to be charged as I am running around on foot, using hte tablet in standalone mode only. I seems like either of these cases do exactly that, with what seems simple snaps that hold the dock part to the rest of the case.

Question - what exactly is the difference between the MiniSuit and the Poetic?

Ok so i got the Poetic delivered by mail today :) 6 days from US to Sweden, that was faster than i expected!!
Actualy you can snap off the keybord and that is easy with 2 simple snaps.
The drawback with that is that you loose a good method of closing it if you drop it, there should be some easy snapping for closing it.
I will attach that function by my self as it should be easy to do. and half the solution is in place already from where the keybord dock snappers are in place. Yes the Poetic case brings a little extra weight but on the other hand it protects the pad quite nice i think, and it looks good! :)
SD-Card can be reached aswell as USB, MicroSD, charging and camera. The keybord dock was not easy to fit in because the strappers are in the way, so i simply didn't attach them they aren't realy needed. I use the snappers only when i detach the keybord from the tablet and want to hold it in place.

Sorry for my english, but i hope you understand what i mean.

Best regards
